Charleston Southern Head Coach Jay Mills
On Miami playing well and using so many freshmen…
“They absolutely played well. They set high standards and high goals for themselves. When you play any opponent as a coach, you expect the very best from your competition no matter if you’re playing an FBS opponent or an FCS opponent. Whether it’s Florida or Charleston Southern or anyone in between, we expect to get their best effort and we did tonight… I was very impressed with the potential that their squad has. You can really see what Coach Shannon has established and what he is building towards.”

On their game plan…
“We had a game plan… and it always looks good on paper. There were a couple of drives where we started to move the ball, but things didn’t happen the way we wanted to. But you have to expect that in a football game, especially when you are playing such a good opponent as Miami. They came out – props to them, they played a great game. But, like I said, you have a game plan and it works for a little while, but it doesn’t work every drive and that’s what the game of football is.”
